What did McEnroe say about DelPo and Almagro? I missed it.

 

The Monfils and Gasquet match wasn't covered on NBC. I am not sure if Tennis Channel covered the Monfils/Gasquet match. I DVR it and haven't seen the early morning coverage. I was able to see Venus, two points of Thiem and Novak's match live. Everything else I woke up too late to watch live. It wouldn't surprise me if McEnroe chuckled during their kiss. When your own son doesn't want anything to do with you...it kind of tells you what kind of person John is.

 

I have a feeling the same goes with Ryan Harrison. He reminds me a lot of John on court yet everyone praises him to the hills on what a great person he is off court. Yeah I got a used car to sell them.

McEnroe's comment about Almagro and DelPo was in the Eurosport video. Can you see it?

 

He actually said it was no big deal, something like that.

The French crowd apparently exhibited unsportsmanlike behaviour again during the match between reigning champion Garbine Muguruza and home player Kristina Mladenovic. Not for the first time, and most likely not the last either.....

NBC showed it and at the end Mugu shakes her finger no when the crowd cheers as she leaves the court....LOL.  She teared up during her press conference.

I said earlier this week - there was nothing injured about  Mladenovic Mag-face.  She milks anything she can and plays alot of gamesmanship.  She argued with an umpire for 3 minutes - found out she could get away with it, and then did it again. She is a total hack.  She is a fake and a hack.  She gets "injured", then runs around afterward like a kid on crack.  She sucks.  She'll win though so that's all that matters.

The women's tour has a lot of players with diva attitudes from Sugar Pimp Mama to Genie Buchard to Miadenovic and I just loathe it. None of this would've happened had Jan Brady beaten her in the first round.....

The French crowd has had pretty notorious reputation for quite some time. They boo a lot for tennis crowds. I didn't see the Mladenovic/Muguruza match but I heard it got intense with Kiki shouting after a couple of Garbiñe's double faults. Not nice at all but unfortunately I can't say it was the first time I have heard of players doing this. I've seen some pretty flagrant incidents of either flouting rules or poor sportsmanship in my years watching tennis.

 

Sometimes I kinda think that the behavior of the French crowd over the years has brought bad karma to their players, which is sorta too bad since there are one or two French players that I would be pleased if they won Roland Garros. Maybe if they got a champion, they'd stop acting this way?

Alizé Cornet (who is still in the tournament

) had an incident with Sara Errani years ago where Cornet yelled "Vamos" in Spanish and Errani got annoyed and asked "Why you say vamos?!" 

 

Supposedly Kiki has also been known to yell "Forza" in Italian.  She speaks 5 languages.  Muguruza, in her Press Conference before it all fell apart was said to quip that Kiki speaks like 25 languages.

I don't care for either player. Cornet plays dirty. And Mladenovic was very vocal against Sugar Mama returning....I guess she doesn't want another diva beyotch in her territory....LOL  She wants to own that name....LOL

    • Sami's Three Stooges stole the show today 

      Please register in order to view this content

      I enjoyed their individual scenes with other characters before they all came together at the Pub to commiserate over their relationships with Sami. I thought that was broken down pretty well. I just wish it had gone on a little longer. And I actually found it kinda funny too lol it seemed more mature than what we're used to. That's the kind of humor that should be on a soap. But I'm not really sure about all this talk of Dante Vitali and Sami's engagement though, especially since it doesn't look like Ali Sweeney is coming back anytime soon. What's the point of it all if we're (probably) not going to see it? It also looked like today was the first round of Brady vs. Xander as well lol I enjoyed their fight, and I'm interested in seeing this storyline play out. Even though I'm sure that Sarah will ultimately go back to Xander in the end, I'd like to see what happens along the way, and how they and everyone around them are affected by this. Btw, Theo and Jada? Idk. I still think he had the most chemistry with Arianna. And he was a bit of a dick too. It also seemed a little out of character for Jada for her to be so OK with him being such a dick  And though Alex and Stephanie were very boring again and need much better conflict than this book stuff, I am interested in the mystery of who's targeting Alex.  And yeah, I know this is a nitpick, but why is the Square still open after the gala? Isn't it supposed to be really late at night? 
    • In fairness, Hillary and Bob Woods were thick as thieves again at least by the end of OLTL. But both she and I believe Mark Derwin not so subtly dissed Kale Browne in the oral history, lol.

    • Frat Boy Jr.'s reaction to seeing Luna was just awful acting. It was so bad that I started laughing.

      Does anyone have screenshots of it?
    • Geez, I hadn't heard that Doctors story. HBS really did go through it. 
    • No offense to the actors involved, but dear God in heaven: I don't know HOW viewers managed to get through that storyline with Maggie, Frank, Cal and baby Jill without running into oncoming traffic.  Then, to make matters worse, they dragged poor Diana into the mess!  I don't care WHO gets that damn baby!  Just wrap it up and move ON already!
    • Poor HBS.  To have to put up with Stephen Burleigh, who stuck his knee between her legs while rehearsing a love scene on THE DOCTORS, then told the director that's what he did with his wife; Kincaid, who had more hair on his chest and upper lip than Koko the Gorilla; Kale Browne, who taped his lines all over the OLTL studio floor, because he couldn't ever be bothered to [!@#$%^&*] memorize them; and Robert S. Woods, who apparently thought it was still 1979 and that he was still smolderingly sexy, so why should Bo Buchanan be stuck being in a happy marriage with Nora?  After all that, no wonder she jumped at the chance to play a lesbian on VENICE, lol.
    • @Maxim Thank you for the mini-review and clip from several pages ago. I appreciate you using the Bo/Alex clip as them meeting again by this point was a real surprise to me. The scene has some layers, getting a glimpse of Alex genuinely wanting the best for Bo rather than gloating. I was disappointed it ended with Tina dragging her out of the room for some much less interesting sparring (I did enjoy Alex pointing out just how quickly Tina got over Cord).
